The Reese 5th Airborne Premium Fifth Wheel Air Ride Coupler # 5AB-E510-710 you asked from is what I can only assume is what you are asking about. This pin box will have two bolts on the bottom that are tight to the air bag and yet designed to be guide pins and free moving to the bottom plate according to my tech contact at Reese. The air bag is held in place by the top two bolts that should be torqued to spec. I've attached a photo of the installation instructions to assist.
